German naturists fear for future of lifestyle amid falling interest

Celebrations cancelled due to low uptake as people go off public nudity in country known for liberal attitudes

An organisation promoting nudity and a self-confident approach towards the body in Germany has sounded the alarm over the future of naturism in the country.

The German Association for Free Body Culture (DFK), an umbrella organisation for myriad naturist interest groups, has told its members that celebrations in August marking the anniversary of its creation will no longer go ahead owing to a lack of interest.
